Hi Darryl,
Thank you for your response but...
I'm not sure what kind of freezer space would be needed for freezing 75
pounds of deer meat what size it would take up. We have so many deer and
I thought rabbit meat might also help supply the regular refrigerator
freezer when things get tough for me which is pretty regular. Thank you so
much for helping me and others out! -Hoagy

Hi Hoagy,
every bit helps.
Try FreeCycle or similar for the freezer. Failing that, see if there is
a used appliance place nearby that will sell you something reasonably energy
efficient (i.e., less than 10 years old) at a good price.
We currently have two small chest freezers (approximately 7 cu.ft.) in
the basement, one of which is unplugged and used for when bounties present
themselves. Both of these came to us for free as a result of moving people,
and the freezers were deemed surplus to need or space available.
Both are sitting on pieces of 1.5-inch extruded polystyrene foam board.
This has made a significant reduction in the amount of electricity they
use. (Reduces the amount of warm air that convects from the 14 degree C
floor into the freezer that we want to keep at below freezing.)
The Web site is coming along. Most of the static content is in place
now, and there are at least place holders and links for the content that
will grow over the year.
I will definitely be covering lighting and appliances over the course of
the year.
